Procedure
To a cooled (0° C.) solution of (5-bromo-pyridin-3-yl)-methanol (5.0 g, 26.6 mmol) and triphenylphosphine (8.4 g, 31.9 mmol) in DCM (130 mL) is added carbon tetrabromide (13.2 g, 39.9 mmol). The resulting mixture is stirred at 0° C. for 10 min. The mixture is concentrated and purified by silica gel column (0-40% EtOAc in heptane) to afford the title compound (6.1 g).
